Photo of Oui! Paris Oui! Paris "Live music at the cocktail reception After giving it a lot of thought, we decided to have a live saxophone performance at the wedding cocktail reception, with a brilliant set list that we didn’t want to change. We’re really glad we went ahead with it, because it was perfect in the garden: the guests were relaxed with the music playing, and it created a magical atmosphere. I’d definitely recommend it!" Based in Paris, Île-de-France Region 17th April 2026 Lara & Josh - Private Wedding Photo of Swinging Lovers Swinging Lovers "Paddy is a trombone player and a great singer, from Dublin, and has been living and playing in Paris for the last 30 years. He had the whole audience in the palm of his hand and the atmosphere was electric." Based in Paris, Île-de-France Region Mary Black - Concert Photo of Petra Penttilä Petra Penttilä "My experience with Petra was superb. She showed up on time, was very professional and has such a pleasant spirit. Thank you Petra for adding that special touch of making this evening beautiful!" Based in Paris, Île-de-France Region Petra Penttila - Private Boat Party for Wedding weekend Photo of MotorBop - Jon Crocco MotorBop - Jon Crocco "I just listened to your recording, bravo to you and the other musicians! It's very pleasant to listen to and not as dark as that, compared to Chet Baker's Almost Blue, one of the rare pieces of music I really know from him along with My Funny Valentine. It mainly made me dive back into the atmosphere of a very good film noir by Louis Malle from the late 1950s in Paris "Ascenseur pour l'échaffaud", the soundtrack is by Miles Davis" Translated from French Based in Paris, Île-de-France Region Anonyme Photo of A frank tribute A frank tribute "Dear Ray, We wanted to take a moment to sincerely thank you for the incredible role you played in making our welcome party so special. Your performance was everything we hoped for and more. So many of our guests commented on how memorable the music was, and we couldn’t agree more. From the first note to the last, you helped make our celebration unforgettable. Thank you again for sharing your incredible talent with us. We’ll always look back on those moments with such joy and gratitude. Warmest regards, Shelby & Ben Garama" Based in Angoulême, Nouvelle-Aquitaine Shelby & Ben Garama - Wedding celebration Photo of NoNi Trio NoNi Trio "NoNi Trio gave a wonderful, graceful, and elegant performance at our wedding. Their music created exactly the warm, sophisticated atmosphere we had hoped for, and their set was one of the most memorable parts of our celebration. They were exceptionally professional, friendly, kind, and accommodating throughout the planning process. In advance of the wedding, they coordinated directly with our DJ and sound engineer to ensure that all sound-equipment requirements were sorted smoothly. They also discussed the setlist with us clearly and thoughtfully, including many of our favourite classics by Frank Sinatra, Ella Fitzgerald, Nat King Cole, Sarah Vaughan, Peggy Lee, Louis Armstrong, and more. They went above and beyond by working with a friend of ours—a backing vocalist and songwriter—who had composed a song especially for us. NoNi Trio helped incorporate her performance into their set, making the moment feel especially personal and meaningful. It was an absolute pleasure working with NoNi Trio from start to finish. We would wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone looking for beautiful, high-quality live jazz for a wedding or special event."

Frequently asked questions

The average price for swing bands on Gig Heaven is €750, with rates from €230 to €2,400+. Cost varies based on the number of musicians, set length and the style of swing. Swing bands range from intimate jazz combos to large orchestras, and the size of the ensemble is the primary factor in pricing.

The swing bands for hire perform swing, big band jazz, jive, boogie-woogie and related styles from the 1930s through to the modern swing revival. Many bands offer a mix of vintage classics and contemporary songs performed in a swing style.

Typical bookings for swing bands include vintage-themed weddings, black-tie dinners, corporate events, cocktail parties, swing dance nights and gala celebrations. Swing music creates a sophisticated, energetic atmosphere that is perfect for dancing.

The swing bands on Gig Heaven range from small combos of three to five musicians up to full big band line-ups with horn sections and vocalists. A smaller group suits intimate settings, while a larger ensemble delivers the classic big band swing sound.

Most swing bands are self-contained and bring their own instruments, PA system and amplification. Larger ensembles may have specific staging requirements. It is worth confirming technical and space needs with the band before booking.

Swing is written for dancing and most bands build the set around it, varying the tempo so the floor stays busy rather than holding one pace all night. Several will run a short demonstration early on at events where guests do not know the steps. A floor area clear of tables makes far more difference to this than the size of the line-up.

Most perform in vintage-styled suits or dresses in keeping with the era, and many will match a black-tie or 1940s theme if asked. Some carry more than one look and will confirm which suits the occasion. Mentioning the theme when enquiring is usually enough, as it rarely affects the fee.

Most line-ups include one, and in smaller groups the singer often doubles on an instrument. Some acts are instrumental only, which works well for background playing but changes the feel once people want to dance. Profiles say which format each act offers and several can supply either.

Discuss your requirements using our messaging system or join a video meeting (like a Zoom-call) to speak face-to-face. Once you are ready to confirm your booking, simply ask the supplier to send you a contract, which you can agree to online, or request amendments. Once you agree to the contract you will be asked to pay a 10% booking fee to confirm the booking, with the balance payable directly to the supplier by the due date you've agreed on.
